It's been a while...

Yes, it has been a while since I blogged last. 

God is always changing up my life, all the time.  Ministry for my husband is going to look different - so different that I don't even know what it will be.  That's funny!  God is funny!  He tells us what step to take and makes us wait for the next one.  Seriously, come on God.  You always want me to "wait."  Why is that?  But the truth is always the same - God is God and his plans are always better than mine.  So I will wait - again!!!  I say that with a smile. :)

I was at my moms bible study at my daughters school this morning, which is always a blessing to me.  The ladies there are awesome, we just love each other, not judge, and it's so great  to be in this kind of envioronment.  But today they just blessed me, they blessed me so big.  They didn't just share encouragement and love they showed it. 

Then I was thinking about our prayer time together.  As everyone had different prayer requests and different people we were praying for, I started getting this picture in my mind.  Try to hang with me for a minute.  Picture you, praying for someone specific, or for a situation in their life.  Now picture you and 10 more people in different places also praying for the same person or situation.  I started imagining these multiple prayers rising.  Then I started imagining this over and over from many different people.  But the number of people praying can grow so huge too.  Now imagine yourself needing prayer - maybe you have cancer, or your husband lost his job, or your child is sick, or your marriage is crumbling - the power of so many prayers being said on your behalf is so cool.  Then I wondered what it must be like to be God and hearing all these prayers.  That just must be so cool.

2 Corinthians 1:10-11
"He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many."

Keep praying people, keep praying.  And if you are being prayed for - those prayers are going straight to your Heavenly Father who hears them.  Can't get any better than that.
